We’ve already played the best team on our schedule.

Arizona is also a step above everyone else too.

And Arizona is playing with mostly freshmen. They beat Ucon in Storrs.

And I think the outcome would have been much closer if it wasnt our third game in 42 hours

Nonsense, was Iowa St. not playing its third game?

They had a much easier second game. We faced the toughest slate of anyone in Vegas .

I agree on Arizona but I also wouldn’t sleep on UCONN unfortunately. That game was without Reed and they’re a real title contender when he’s healthy.

 

[Cuse_NYC]

Yes, easily. They are second in KenPom with only Michigan ahead of them. St John’s has 3 losses, but they also beat Baylor by 16. By all is said in done they likely will finish 2nd in the BE.

Iowa State is averaging about 95 ppg and shooting 44% from 3.

Kenpom isn’t the be all and end all. Baylor also lost to Memphis. And the Big East is going to be badddd.

Wrong. They got Creighton their 2nd game, we got Kansas. They didn't play an overtime game, we did. They weren't playing without their best player, we were.

It 100% predicts spreads. The only team in the country ISU would be an underdog against right now is Michigan. You’ve been wrong in just about every post in this thread.

Players do not loaf on the court. Being more tired than them is no excuse. Your post blamed the blowout entirely on is being tired. Fact is that they are much better than us.

Throwing up in my mouth while saying this, but UConn is without question a title contender again this year. If they beat Florida tonight it will be their 4th Top 25 win of the season already.

They are better than us. But the fact is if the teams played each other tomorrow with same players available as the first time they played they would not win by 31 points. Playing without your best player 3 games in 42 hours is much different than playing without your best player after having a few days. The proof of this are the games vs Houston and vs Tennessee. Would we likely lose? yes, but more likely by 15 rather than 31...

Yup I feel you all the way there hahah.
Florida may not end the season a top 30 team even IMO though that team is a disaster.

Who is the genius that came up with playing one game over a 15 day period BEFORE the holidays ? I almost forgot we have a team .

I'm having a chuckle thinking about Kiyan sitting in a class taking a final. He should prob be teaching the business classes at Whitman.

Other schools have finals . These aren’t actual students

And yet, we've been doing it for decades...

Still crushing teams. Won 13 of 16 by double digits. They are third in KenPom behind Arizona and Michigan.

 

[Cstate]

Kansas curb stomped them tonight be 21

They storm the court?

Who would have ever thought there would be 3 undefeated teams left and two of them would be Vanderbilt and Nebraska.
